| facies interlobares pulmonis | The pulmonary surfaces in the interlobar fissures of the lung. Synonym: facies interlobares pulmonis. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| facies medialis pulmonis | It consists of a vertebral part and a mediastinal part. See: mediastinal surface of lung. Synonym: facies medialis pulmonis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies mediastinalis pulmonis | The part of the medial surface of a lung in contact with the mediastinum. Synonym: pars mediastinalis pulmonis, facies mediastinalis pulmonis, mediastinal part of lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fissura horizontalis pulmonis dextri | The deep fissure that separates the upper and middle lobes of the right lung. Synonym: fissura horizontalis pulmonis dextri, horizontal fissure of right lung, minor fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fissura obliqua pulmonis | The deep fissure in each lung that runs obliquely downward and forward. It divides the upper and lower lobes of the left lung and separates the upper and middle lobes from the lower lobe of the right lung. Synonym: fissura obliqua pulmonis, major fissure, oblique fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum latum pulmonis | <anatomy> Two-layered fold formed as the pleura of the mediastinum is reflected onto the lung inferior to the root of the lung. Synonym: ligamentum pulmonale, ligamentum latum pulmonis, Teutleben's ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lingula pulmonis sinistri | An inferomedial projection from the anterior aspect of the upper lobe of the left lung which bounds the cardiac notch inferiorly. Synonym: lingula pulmonis sinistri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus inferior pulmonis | It is located below and behind the oblique fissure and contains five bronchopulmonary segments: superior, medial basal, anterior basal, lateral basal, and posterior basal. Synonym: lobus inferior pulmonis, lower lobe of lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus medius pulmonis dextri | It is located anteriorly between the horizontal and oblique fissures and includes lateral and medial bronchopulmonary segments. Synonym: lobus medius pulmonis dextri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus superior pulmonis | The lobe of the right lung that lies above the oblique and horizontal fissures and includes the apical, posterior and anterior bronchopulmonary segments; in the left lung, the lobe lies above the oblique fissure and contains the apicoposterior, anterior, superior lingular and inferior lingular segments. Synonym: lobus superior pulmonis, upper lobe of lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumonia, mycoplasma | Interstitial pneumonia caused by extensive infection of the lungs and bronchi, particularly the lower lobes of the lungs, by mycoplasma pneumoniae. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mycoplasma | Prokaryotic microorganisms lacking cell walls and therefore resistant to many antibiotics. Formerly known as pleuro pneumonia like organisms (PPLO). A causative agent of pneumonia in humans and some domestic animals, is Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Troublesome contaminants of animal cell cultures, in which they may grow attached or close to cell surfaces, subtly altering properties of the cells, but escaping detection unless specifically monitored. Similar organisms, spiroplasms cause various diseases in plants. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Mycoplasma agalactiae | A bacterial species causing contagious agalactia of sheep and goats, a common disease in the Mediterranean region. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mycoplasma buccale | A bacterial species which is an infrequent parasitic inhabitant of the human oropharynx; it is the predominant mycoplasma in the oropharynx of nonhuman primates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mycoplasma conjunctivae subsp. ovis | A bacterial subspecies associated with pinkeye of sheep. (05 Mar 2000) |
